Abstract

The data set consists of lead (Pb) isotopic ratios (206Pb/207Pb and 208Pb/207Pb, as well as 206Pb/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb, 208Pb/204Pb) for particulate samples collected from snow and dry deposition. This was part of a study (O’Day et al. 2020) that was looking at the speciation of phosphorous in splits of these samples to evaluate the flux and bio-availability of phosphorous to the mountain sites in the study. The Pb isotopic data allow sourcing of long-range transported Pb, specifically the fraction of Pb sourced in Asia, and so a comparison of the relative distances of PM sources between the high and low elevation sites. Samples were collected at the East River Watershed, CO (dry deposition collected over Sept.-Oct. 2016, show sampling winter 2017) and at the Southern Sierra Critical Zone Observatory (dry deposition collected over Sept-Nov 2016, July-Sept 2017, June-July 2017). The data includes Pb concentration data, as well as calculated fraction of the Pb sourced in Asia. This data set was published in part in O’Day et al. (2020) Phosphorus Speciation in Atmospherically Deposited Particulate Matter and Implications for Terrestrial Ecosystem Productivity. ES&T, https://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.9b06150

Sample Collection Metadata for Soil Cores from the East River Watershed, Colorado collected in 2017

Dataset Sorensen, Patrick ; Brodie, Eoin ; Beller, Harry ; ...

This data package contains sample collection metadata for soil cores from the East River Watershed in Colorado used in biogeochemical analyses by the Watershed Function SFA. Soil cores were collected seasonally during autumn, winter, snowmelt, and spring at a predominately montane meadow, high altitude field site. Information provided for each soil core sample assigned an International Geo Sample Number (IGSN) includes: sample name, IGSN, material, description, collection method, core depth, location, field program, collectors, and date. The full list of 53 IGSN's is listed in the Methods section. There is also a complete core sample list and metadata for themore » set of baseline data.« less
Soil Nitrogen, Water Content, Microbial Biomass, and Archaeal, Bacterial and Fungal Communities from the East River Watershed, Colorado collected in 2016-2017

Dataset Sorensen, Patrick ; Brodie, Eoin ; Beller, Harry ; ...

This data set contains soil measurements made at the Pumphouse Hillslope to Floodplain transect at the locations of the early snowmelt-timing manipulation experiments in the East River Watershed in Colorado, USA. The data were collected in 2016 and 2017 to determine soil microbial responses to snow accumulation, snowmelt, and transition from winter to spring. Some additional data from the Washington Gulch snowmelt manipulation experiment lcoations are also included here.Data were collected on soil cores collected in the field at three soil depths (0 to 5 cm, 5 to 15 cm, 15 cm +) below the soil surface and analyzed inmore »« less
Sapflow and xylem water isotopes from Snodgrass Mountain, East River Watershed, Colorado USA

Dataset Berkelhammer, Max ; Still, Christopher ; Page, Gerald ; ...

This dataset includes sapflux and stable water isotopes of soil water and xylem water for aspen, fir and spruce trees along the Snodgrass Mountain transect in the East River Watershed, Colorado USA. The purpose of generating this dataset was to understand: (1) the total flux of water being used by trees in the watershed, (2) separate the component of transpiration that was derived from recent precipitation vs. older water such as winter precipitation of groundwater and (3) understand how total water use and water sources for the trees varies between species and position on a hillslope.

Natural abundance nitrate isotopes from Rifle and the East River Watershed, Colorado

Dataset Bouskill, Nicholas J. ; Sorensen, Patrick ; Conrad, Mark ; ...

This data package provides data on the natural abundance isotopes of nitrate from various sources, including porewater, stream, and precipitation. The overall purpose of this data package is to complement additional data streams for nitrogen cycling metrics (e.g., riverine inorganic and organic nitrogen measurements) with specific data gleaned from the interpretation of terrestrial and riverine isotope measurements and collectively understand on how nitrogen is cycled around this system. The Rifle and East River are part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin, United States. Collection locations include: Pumphouse (multiple sampling dates), Rivermore »« less
LiDAR collection in August 2015 over the East River Watershed, Colorado, USA

Dataset Wainwright, Haruko ; Williams, Kenneth

Airborne LiDAR data were acquired over the study area on August 10th, 2015, using a Riegl Q1560 dual-channel LiDAR system mounted on a Piper Navajo. The survey was performed by Quantum Spatial in collaboration with Eagle Mapping Ltd. The data complies with the USGS QL1 standard [Heideman, 2014] with the point density more than 8 pulse per m2.
